Chris de Burgh releases his new album “The Storyman” on 9th October 2006 through Edel Records. The CD contains 12 new tracks and to tie in with the theme of “The Storyman” Chris has written a short story to accompany each song. These stories set the scene and expand upon the lyrics with detail, colour and atmosphere.

The initial shipment of “The Storyman” is available as a special limited edition digipack containing 2 books – one The Stories behind the songs and the other The Lyrics.

The album is produced by Chris Porter and Chris de Burgh.

Guests on the album include Kristyna Myles winner of the BBC Busker of the Year competition, who is featured on “Raging Storm,” the London Russian Choir who sing on “Leningrad”, while the three-piece African vocal group The Mahotella Queens feature on ‘One World’ and ‘Spirit’. On “The Mirror of The Soul” Chris – a former pupil himself – is joined by The Marlborough College Chamber Choir. Egyptian Artist Hani Hussein features on ‘My Father’s Eyes’. Six of the album's songs were recorded live in session with 90 members of The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, at London's legendary Abbey Road studios.

Full Track Listing:
1 The Storyman Theme 7 The Shadow Of The Mountain
2 One World 8 Raging Storm
3 Leningrad 9 The Mirror Of The Soul
4 My Father¹s Eyes 10 The Sweetest Kiss Of All
5 The Grace Of A Dancer 11 The Storyman
